Netflix app freezes all the time on Roku TCL TV

I’m ready to get a different tv. TCL Roku tv is good except for Netflix. If someone were to ask me if I would recommend the tv, I’d have to say no just because of this one issue. It’s annoying that I can’t even scroll the interface without it freezing up. When I play a tv show and go to rewind or fast forward to find where I was at, it freezes. Can’t press anything other than the home button to exit out and try all over again. Super frustrating! Only Netflix. All other streaming apps work flawlessly!

@Ju5tscream Try uninstalling the Netflix app, unplug the TV for 30 to 60 seconds are do a system restart, and then reinstall the app and see if that helps.  Also, check for any updates to the Roku/apps.
